Eze stated, “We include everybody in our programme, we are not a gender insensitive organization, we also attend to men. We know that men are also being abused. we’ve had four male cases but gender based violence is common among women.

“Nobody deserves to die in an abusive relationship, so we encourage everyone , including the men, to speak up when they are being abused or assaulted.
